House Flies Control Treatment

House Flies Control Treatment

House flies enter homes by several means: doors which do not close fast enough or that do not have a good fit; windows without screens or with screens in ill repair.Flies also enter buildings through tiny cracks around windows and doors; seal or caulk these areas.

Fly Elimination

Fly elimination procedures include source elimination, exclusion and population reduction. In most cases, population reduction involves eliminating the source of the flies and excluding them from the environment. Other methods of reducing or eliminating flies include the use of Ultraviolet Light Traps and Surface Spray.

Some blood-sucking flies are carriers of diseases such as malaria and yellow fever. Other flies carry bacteria that cause typhoid and dysentery

The most common species encountered in homes and other structures is Fruit Flies namely D.melanogaster. Fruit flies are also known as pomace flies or vinegar flies. These pests can be found throughout the world,in homes, food processing plants, warehouses, grocery stores, wineries, restaurants and other structures.

The larvae of these pests can be found in many breeding sites: aquatic areas, seaweed, decaying grass and compost piles, earthworms, manure, dead animals, cadavers, garbage, damp organic matter in all stages of decomposition, sewers, soil contaminated by

sewage, potting soil,cheeses, meats, drains, rotting vegetables and fruits, fresh fruits, wet soil and sump pumps. Some blood-sucking flies are carriers of diseases such as malaria and yellow fever. Other flies carry bacteria that cause typhoid and dysentery. The larvae (or maggot) of this fly develops quickly (within a few days) and then crawls a short distance away to burrow into the soil. Once under the soil, the maggot pupates, with adult flies emerging in a few days.

During the fall and winter months adult Flies may hibernate in the walls of homes and other structures. As daytime and evening temperatures begin to drop, the adult Flies will be attracted to the warm walls of homes. The walls on the south and east sides of buildings are the ones usually affected because the late summer sun shines most on these sides. On warm days, the flies become active and will often move to the inside of homes in alarming numbers. Once they have responded to the warmth of a home's interior walls, Flies are strongly attracted by light and so are usually found around windows. At night, the flies will fly around light bulbs.

Control Measure

Although there are several sprays and traps used to kill flies in a home, restaurant or other structure, the infestation cannot be eliminated without eliminating their source. A space spray can be used as a quick kill, reducing populations of flying insects.Fly elimination procedures include source elimination, exclusion and population reduction. In most cases, population reduction involves eliminating the source of the flies and excluding them from the environment. Other methods of reducing or eliminating flies include the use of Ultraviolet Light Traps and Surface Spray. The key to eliminating Flies is to locate the voids in which they over winter and treating these areas with a surface spray using our formulated chemicals.
